Simple and Quick Berry Compote

Breakfast, brunch, or dessert - you can use this compote on just about anything to add delicious sweetness. I like to top my pancakes with this compote instead of using plain syrup.

Equipment

  • Saucepan

Ingredients

  • 8 ounce strawberries chopped into medium-sized pieces
  • 4 ounce raspberries whole
  • 3 Tablespoons maple syrup

Instructions

  • Add water, non-stick cooking spray, or butter to the bottom of a small saucepot to prevent the berries from sticking.
  • Heat saucepot to medium-high heat. Add the raspberries and chopped strawberries to the pot and cook stirring frequently. About 5 minutes.
  • When the berries begin to release some liquids, add maple syrup.
  • Simmer, stirring frequently for about 10 minutes longer until the compote looks like a jam-like sauce.

Notes

  • This compote would also be great with blackberries and blueberries!
  • This recipe yields about ½ cup of compote.
